When it comes to the skiing…

Fernie boasts over 1,000 hectares (2,500 acres) of skiing on named trails and bowls across a wide swath of the Lizard Range. The terrain at this B.C. ski resort varies from long, gentle beginner and intermediate runs to hair-raising double black diamonds more often seen in Warren Miller movies than in person.

During the 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 season, the ski area received over 1100cm (37 feet) of snow. That’s the snow of legends!
